It's possible his Mum can't attend because she's the Head of the Anglican Communion.
Huh. Didn't the two churches stop hissing and spitting and calling each other "beeyotch" a while back?
Now hold on, I'm gonna press the right pedal harder. I expect us to accelerate.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

If I only had a brain...
Yes and No. You still can't legally inherit the British throne if you are, or are married to, a Catholic.

I think they just glare quietly at each other now.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Actually, I think they make nice face-to-face and then roll their eyes forever and make little "What. Ev." handsigns behind each other's backs.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Favorite Royals anecdote:
When William was filling out the ledger for Eton, he leaned over to his mum and asked, "What religion are we?"

They are British, after all. Restrained social freeze-outs when they meet at the same parties.
I imagine "Whee, we're married!" celebrations wouldn't look good on the day of a major funeral. Camilla's staying home, probably muttering nasty words under her breath.

I was just talking about this with my roommate. My guess was that, as a sort-of head of state (sub-head, maybe.... but more important than a vice president, to be sure), a major world event like a pope dying (which is like 9/11 or greater level in its world significance) is cause to postpone your wedding, I'd say.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
When William was filling out the ledger for Eaton, he leaned over to his mum and asked, "What religion are we?"
Eton--unless he was applying to a stationery company. :)
Great anecdote, though--snerk.
